As we head into Winter Meetings there have been some trades made that have made some teams better and other teams weaker in my opinion. I will deal with just two trades in particular. Both of them involve the Tigers. It is only my opinion, but the trading of Prince Fielder and Doug Fister have made […]

My predictions for 2013 didn’t go as well this year as they have in previous years. But when it was all said and done, we had a great season to look back at and say there were some really big surprises. And some not-so-big surprises. I will start with who I picked to make the […]

With the series 3-2 in favor of the Red Sox heading into Game 6 tonight, there are many people who think it is over with the series moving back to Boston. I for one don’t think it is over, mainly for one reason. That reason is 22 years old and stands 6’6″ tall. Michael Wacha! […]

With September nearly upon us , I thought I would look at who is going to be in the 2013 Postseason in the National League. In the East, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say the Braves have that locked up. They hold a lead that I don’t believe can possibly be overtaken. […]

With Jason Grilli going on the DL, how much will this hurt the Pirates’ chances to make the Postseason? Simply put, I don’t believe they can if they don’t make a move before the Trade Deadline. There are a few teams that can use a closer heading into the deadline. If I were the Pirates, […]

What makes this Pirate team for real, after last year’s team teased all of us into thinking they were going to finally finish above .500 for the first time in 20 years? First off, they have depth in their starting rotation. What Jeff Locke and Gerrit Cole have done has been impressive. When you have […]
